Another short-ish post for you this week. If you know me, you know that How The Grinch Stole Christmas directed by Ron Howard is one of my favourite Christmas movies. It’s ridiculous, fun, and as you get older you realize, it’s quite naughty. I’ve always thought that Jim Carrey was brilliant as the Grinch, but I never knew how difficult the role was for him.
Reading this fact and knowing what he went through made me appreciate the movie and Jim Carrey’s dedication even more that I had before. I know for a fact that I would NOT be able to sit in a make up chair for eight and half hours…every…single…day. It’s quite absurd that he had to do that, but I’m not surprised as I am someone who has watched The Lords of the Rings and The Hobbit‘s behind the scenes footage. Prosthetics are hectic and any actor or actress that decides they’re going to take part in that, deserve several pats on the back (and perhaps a raise).
